Procedures for Third Party Claims In the case of any claim for indemnification arising from a claim of a third-party other than an Infringement Claim subject to Section 13.3 above (a “Third-Party Claim”), a party seeking indemnification hereunder (each an “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt written notice, following such Indemnified Party’s receipt of such claim or demand, to the party from which indemnity is sought (each an “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim or demand of which such Indemnified Party has knowledge and as to which it may request indemnification hereunder; provided, however, that failure to give such notice will not affect such Indemnified Party’s rights hereunder unless, and then solely to the extent that, the rights of the Indemnifying Parties from whom indemnity is sought are prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right (and if it elects to exercise such right, shall do so within twenty (20) days after receiving such notice from the Indemnified Party) to defend and to direct the defense against any such claim or demand, in its name or in the name of the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, and with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume control of the defense of such action only if the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its indemnity obligations and assumes and holds the Indemnified Party harmless from and against all Losses resulting from such Third-Party Claim; and provided further that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense if (i) the Indemnifying Party shall not have notified the Indemnified Party of its exercise of its right to defend such Third-Party claim within such twenty (20) day period; (ii) such claim or demand seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, (iii) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that (x) there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in the conduct of the defense of such claim or demand or (y) the Indemnified Party has one or more defenses not available to the Indemnifying Party, (iv) such claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, or (v) the appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Indemnified Party shall, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, cooperate with the Indemnifying Party, and keep the Indemnifying Party fully informed, in the defense of such claim or demand. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any claim or demand with counsel employed at its own expense; provided, however, that, in the case of any claim or demand described in clause (i) or (ii) of the second preceding sentence or as to which the Indemnifying Party shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such claim or demand, the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have no indemnification obligations with respect to any such claim or demand which shall be settled by the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned if such settlement is accompanied by a document releasing the Indemnified Party from all liability with respect to the matter in controversy that is binding, valid and enforceable against all applicable Parties). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Indemnified Party fails to object to the settlement within five (5) Business Days of receipt of a written notice from the Indemnifying Party containing the terms and condition of such settlement, the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to have consented to the settlement.
